[RE-wrenches] Electric Crimper Recommendations

[Kienan Maxfield]

Chad,

How does that DeWalt large wire stripper work for ultra fine stranded cable, such as our typical 4/0 battery cable?

Thanks,
Kienan

I think it was about $3K with dies but we also go a free DeWalt large wire stripper with it as well. And yes, it does 4/0 battery lugs like a champ.

Chad, what ballpark price for the Dewalt crimped.  Does it handle 4/0 heavy duty lugs.   I’m getting too old for my hand crumper.

We bought the DeWalt version not too long ago. Makes great crimps and much easier to work with in tight spaces if you have too.

Well worth the money...

Hi all,

I’m wondering if anyone has recommendations for an electric crimper tool for battery lugs? I see that they can get expensive quickly, but a tool that cuts down on the struggle is a tool worth considering.

Thanks in advance!
